3 mois et demi de canoë en Finlande en autonomie complète avec un drone et une petite incursion en Russie qui nous a valu d’êtres soustraits de notre liberté par les gardes-cotes Finlandais...
Cependant nous avons rencontré tellement de gens bienveillants, gentils et curieux à notre égard que nous considérons ce voyage comme un cadeau de la vie.
Nous avons aussi croisé un lynx;
Sans images du félin, nous n'aurions rien dit !
De mi Mai à fin Juillet nous avons parcouru plus de 1200 km de canoë et apprécié une centaine de kilomètres de portages à travers des parcs nationaux, de lacs immenses en rivières minuscules aux marais envoûtants.
Jusqu'à la rencontre d'une famille Finlandaise qui bouleversera le cours de notre voyage, sa finalité et aussi un peu de notre vie.
Le mois d’Août s'est déroulé autour d'une cabane/sauna au bord d'un lac, qui nous a été prêtée sans limite de durée et à laquelle nous pouvons revenir comme bon nous semble !
L'étranger est notre frère; L'homme qui vient de bien loin est notre parent.
- Proverbe Finlandais -
3 and a half months of canoeing in Finland in complete autonomy with a drone and a small incursion in Russia which has earned us from being removed from our freedom by Finnish rangers ...
However, we have met so many caring, kind and inquisitive people that we view this trip as a gift of life.
We also crossed a lynx;
Without images of the feline, we wouldn't have said anything !
From mid-May to the end of July we traveled more than 1200 km of canoe and enjoyed a hundred kilometers of portages through national parks, from huge lakes to tiny rivers to mesmerizing marshes.
Until the meeting of a Finnish family that will upset the course of our journey, its purpose and also a little of our life.
The month of August took place around a cabin / sauna at the edge of a lake, which has been lent to us for no time and to which we can return as we wish !
The stranger is our brother; The man who has come a long way is our parent.
- Finnish proverb -

Le compte-rendu : Nav 10 - 07 Juin (mise à jour : 12 janv. 2018)
Casually, as we go north, there is always a small current against us that allows us to enjoy a little longer.
Many people ask us "why in the opposite direction?" ... "Well, whatever the meaning, we just want to go through there!" At some point in the course we will end up with the current with us, it is disappointing of facility.
Vaajakoski. Arriving we do not know yet what is the procedure to follow.
We imagine that a person is in the turret overlooking the lock, but nobody ...
So after phoning the number indicated, we understood that we had to pull the zipper to start the start of the locks, which are all automatic and all FREE, even for motor boats.
In Finland there is no need for a license to fish with a simple cane, even if it is 15 meters, you have to get a license, at a modest price, to be able to fish with the reel, that's what is said! Because everyone clearly told us that there was never any control ... except maybe in the trout or salmon rivers that are popular with sinners around the world.
There is no point in moving forward, the swirls are so powerful that they keep us away from the door.
I'is always the feeling of entering the mouth of the wolf.
It gives an idea of the kind of boat / barge that can go through there.
The height of the walls completely blocks our field of vision.
The doors close suddenly and sway a prison sound that resonates throughout the lock, anxiety.
Everything is automatic, the locks are under video surveillance and the central station is 60 km away, it will be the passage of our last lock for this portion.
The time it fills I send the drone 200 meters above the canoe.
The level of stress that it generates is often established according to the height where it is ... But until here, all is well ...

We too, take altitude, although we already feel up to it !
At the end of the day, we believed the passage possible,
yet we did not see the entrance to the small passage at the top of the image.
All the reeds merge at the water level,
All the reeds merge at the water level,
and the screen that restores the image of the drone is hardly appreciable under the sun.
So we come back for a detour of 2 km, while starting to search bivouac.
A farm is not far away but it is abandoned.
Day of rest in the sun.
It is the old boat lying in the background of the image that pushed us to come and see what it was.
At first glance everything seems wild.
The backgrounds are often unexpected but we are in southern Finland and it is normal to be in populated, exploited and private areas. The tent is visible.
In spite of that, it is enough to satisfy ourselves and to find corners that suit us.
No problem to wash as much as we wanted.
It was necessary to make too many updates of the software of flight "DJI GO" and it was a surprise to note that the 4G works with full tubes but even at this rate, it sometimes requires 2 hours ! Without updates, no takeoff possible.
People really have a hard time imagining the sheer number of books you read, like all the notebooks you write. But for someone who wants to become a writer, it's the right path.
June 09 9 AM In the early morning, ready to leave, volunteers, rested, sharpened. We are completely caught up in this trip and time is running at incredible speed.
